Beast Mutation - 24 Ch. 22 Shopping
“Lily, you should go out as I wanna talk to mother about something.” Karol said that with a smile. Lily just nodded her head and got outside of the room. “Lily, don’t Eavesdrop in our conversation.” Karol said with a smile, looking at the door.
Suddenly a gasped sound was heard, then a sound of footsteps disappearing. “So, what do you want to talk about.” Karen said, looking at Karol as it must something serious to not let Lily listen about it.
“It is about Lily’s condition.” Karol said with a sad tone. “Huh, What about Lily’s condition?” Karen asked, realizing something is wrong by Karol’s sound. Then Karol started to tell her about the condition of Lily’s bloodline.
For a few minutes, both of them stay silent. “Don’t worry about this; we will find a cure for her.” Karen said with strange eyes. Karol couldn’t understand how his mother is so confident about healing Lily.
“Don’t worry; we will find a way to heal her.” Karen said, looking at Karol’s expression. Karol just nodded his head as he was not confident about it as the condition Lily was in is considered incurable.
“Mom, I will be out for a week.” Karol said as he wanted to change the topic. “No, you are not.” Karen said that as she knew he is talking about staying in the forest.
“Mom, don’t worry, I will not be in the forest in the nighttime and stay at the edge of the forest in the daytime.” Karol said that looking at his mother. “Then why will you be out for a week when you can come back in the nighttime.” Karen asked as she was still in doubt.
“I have found a part-time job in the nighttime, so this is why I will be out for a week,” Karol said, trying to convince his mother. “Okay, but don’t try to overwork yourself.” Karen said in a sad tone as she knew it was because of her, he was doing it.
“Don’t need to worry mom, as I am the strongest.” Karol said with a smile. Karen started to laugh, hearing that and was also happy as she knew, he said those words to up her mood.
“Okay, then, I will be going shopping with Lily.” Karol said that and turned around to leave. “Don’t try to be stingy and buy better clothes for Lily.” Karen said, looking at Karol’s back. Hearing that, Karol stumbled a little and said,” You don’t need to tell me that.” listening that, Karen just laughs.
“Okay, Lily, let’s go to buy you some clothes.” Karol said with a smile. “I am s-s-sorry.” Lily suddenly said that lowering her head. Hearing that, Karol was surprised and looked at Lily. “Huh, Why did you say sorry?” Karol asked as he didn’t remember what she had done wrong.
“It is about when I didn’t leave when b-b-big b-brother tell me to.” Lily said with an apologetic tone. “You don’t need to worry about those things as I not angry at all.” Karol said with a smile. “Really?” Lily asked with a cute voice. Looking at her face, Karol just nodded his head with a smile and patted her head.
“Now, let’s go to buy you some clothes.” Karol said that and started to walk with Lily at his side, holding his hand. While they were going towards the shop, Lily was looking around everything with a curious eye.
Suddenly, Lily’s gaze was fixed on something, but she ignored it and didn’t say anything, but Karol saw what she was looking at and decided to buy that after buying the clothes.
Finally, they reached a small shop made of wood which sells clothes for girls. Entering the shop, they saw many clothes hang around the shop. “Sir, how I can help you.” A middle-aged woman said, looking at the new costumer.
“I want some clothes for her.” Karol said, pointing towards Lily. The middle-aged women looked at the girl and were surprised to see her condition, but she didn’t say anything about it.
“So, how many clothes, sir?” The woman asked with a smile. “Seven sets of casual clothes and two sets of clothes she can wear on special occasions.” Karol said, looking at the women. The woman just nodded her head and started to show them some clothes.
After a while, they finally decided on clothes. “Why don’t you go any try the clothes.” Karol said, looking at Lily. Lily just nodded her head and started to go towards the trial room.
“Can you help her in wearing the clothes as she doesn’t know that, and also I will back in a few minutes.” Karol said that and left the shop.
The women then go towards the trial room and help Lily with the clothes. “How d-d-do I look b-brother.” Lily said that with a red face and closed eyes. For a few minutes, she didn’t hear anything and thought something was wrong, and she opened her eyes to see no one was in front of her.
She looked at the women and asked, “Where is big brother.” The woman looked at the girl and said, “He said that he is going somewhere and…” even before she can complete her sentence, Lily started crying.
Karol entered the shop and saw Lily crying, and he was surprised to see that. He ran towards Lily and asked, “What happened?” Hearing her brother’s voice, Lily calm down a little and said, ‘It-thought that big b-b-brother is going to leave me.”
“Don’t cry as your big brother is never going to leave you.” Karol said with a smile and started to pat her head. “Here, take this.” Karol said that and gave Lily something. Looking at the thing her big brother had given her, she was surprised.
It was the candy she saw at the shop when she was coming here. Suddenly she hugged Karol and said, “You are the best brother.” Karol smiled, hearing that and patted her head.
